let me know that the tags were being parsed incorrectly. Rescanned and found a few more. Also attaching the v simple code so you can check my work.

The few I downloaded from open access were visible to grep; usually toward the end of the file in an XML stream:

grep -Ena '<[^/]{50,}/>' *.pdf

A variation on https://twitter.com/Jofkos/status/1486244612960366593.

I managed to get hashes that are very close on the same paper ( https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ijhydene.2021.11.149 ) :

FCi27 ndj8y.uMn9q G yPn8m8 NN ogiM l t-SyPu G y.z8zwf8zgiNmMqM o9e PndmNn9iMot2 Tma

w8arl mgeLmPf7zgm G y.iJns NN mPuQ l wf.ogm G nduLot2Mz9v9otr7 o9e PndmNn9iNmd- Tma

I put some spaces in the hashes, because I think there are some patterns at such positions.

Later obtained hashes seem very different, still.

Here are some informations regarding the files, in the same order than the hashes :

WOW that looks like they might just be timestamps, that is LAZY on their part. I'll try and systematically sample across time and see if i can get repeating patterns/match subsections with times. I think you're right, those do seem to be independent and repeatable sections.
